      Doc review attorney

      Pros

      Nice people. Good surroundings. Good coffee. Free parking. Interesting cases. Good dress code. Free CLE. Great IT department. Update computers with large screens

      Cons

      Too much in-breeding in direct supervisors. They choose favorites. They play power games and become intimidated if a doc review attorney out performs them, even if their perception is wrong. Management stunts grow of program and makes sure the reviewers with talent beyond the computer don't get asked back

      A Forward-Thinking Firm with Heart, Navigating Change

      Pros

      One of the things I appreciated most about Orrick was the caliber and character of the people. I had the opportunity to work with some of the most collaborative and genuinely kind professionals in the industry, and I consistently felt respected and valued by the lawyers I supported. The firm embraces innovation and encourages employees to stay ahead of the curve—particularly in legal tech and client service—which helped me grow my skillset in meaningful ways. Orrick also stands out for its strong brand in key practice areas and its real commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion. From generous parental leave policies to free access to therapists and business coaches, the firm truly invests in the well-being of its people. Orrick also understands that impact and presence are not tied to a physical office. The remote and hybrid work culture is not only supported—it is normalized. For professionals who value flexibility without sacrificing career growth, this mindset sets Orrick apart.

      Cons

      During periods of transition, clearer and more consistent communication would go a long way in maintaining trust and morale. At times, organizational changes were rolled out with limited context or follow-up, which left some teams feeling uncertain about direction and priorities. A more visible and engaged presence from leadership during these moments could help bridge the gap, providing clarity and reinforcing a sense of shared purpose.

      Great insurance benefits, hybrid/work from home
